Chapter 195: Walking on the Road of Life
Guan Meimei has worked hard in the industry for decades, and after retiring at the age of 40, she is now nearly 50 years old.
At this age, there is only five years away from the country's legal retirement age.
People have struggled to the point where she has no regrets.
What should have been enjoyed, already enjoyed. What shouldn't have been enjoyed, and what was enjoyed.
It stands to reason that Guan Meimei should take the myths in the circle and the compliments of others, slowly come to retirement age, and then-
Honorable retirement!
To put it mildly, when she is too old to walk and lie in the ICU, the media may write her many press releases about her imminent death because of the myths she once created.
Her fans may be old, and they will pray for her, hoping that she will stop or go safely.
A person's life is for fame and profit, and for ideals...... Guan Meimei has only spent half her life doing what she should do in her life.
She had several relationships, but all of them ended without a hitch and had no children, but raised one.
This kind of life is what many people want, Guan Meimei also feels that she is living a good life now, and after she dies, I am afraid that she will also be a piece of flowers and praise, living in people's hearts.
That's how old you are!
Guan Meimei received the email from Gu Che, and while opening it, she sighed: "In a flash, the years are like a shuttle, and I still remember the scene when I was desperately running the notice before." At that time, I would never have imagined that one day I would be so leisurely at home, doing whatever I wanted, no one staring at me and no one caring about me. ”
"After all, I am getting older, and during this time, I often think of the busy and fulfilling years in the past!"
Since Feng Anxian knew that Guan Meimei personally came to Gu Che to invite her to sing, she also came to the front of the screen from her retirement life behind the scenes, followed Guan Meimei, and gave her advice.
Ten years ago, Feng Anxian was Guan Meimei's agent and took Guan Meimei for decades.
Back then, Feng Anxian and Guan Meimei both had a premonition that a new generation of talents would emerge, and many stars of the older generation could not keep up with the development and changes, so they had to abdicate and make way for Xian.
Out of various considerations, Feng Anxian discussed with Guan Meimei, and finally Guan Meimei decided to quit the entertainment industry, and while she was still very famous, she ended in people's praise, so as not to become a sad ending with several artists in the same period, and be cut off by the newcomer.
And at that time, with the rise of the Internet and the rapid development of the times, Guan Meimei, as a person in the entertainment industry, was at the forefront of new things, and she could feel the rapid changes, and she felt that it was difficult for her to adapt, so she adopted Feng Anxian's suggestion.
Guan Meimei said goodbye to the entertainment industry for the time being, and Feng Anxian didn't bring any newcomers from then on, quit with Guan Meimei, invested a lot of money in an entertainment company, and became a minority shareholder for retirement.
Coincidentally, the entertainment company invested by Feng Anxian is called [Xingchen Culture].
With the development of [Xingchen Culture] becoming smoother and smoother, Feng Anxian has invested more and more, and in several equity changes, she has invested a lot of money each time, and gradually changed from a small shareholder to one of the few major shareholders.
Even if she is not in power, the other shareholders of [Xingchen Culture] have never underestimated Feng Anxian.
It is one thing to hold a huge amount of equity, and it is another thing for Feng Anxian to have her own influence in the circle.
In the process of the development of Xingchen culture, there have been several black hand blows in the industry, and when seeking help from shareholders, only Feng Anxian took out her mobile phone, made a phone call, and said a few words to the people on the phone, and the blow to Xingchen culture was immediately stopped.
If it's just one time, it won't highlight Feng Anxian's means.
But if Feng Anxian solves it several times, a phone call can turn the danger into a disaster, how can this not make people think more?
In this way, even if Feng Anxian is not in power, other shareholders, including the president of Xingchen Culture, who also holds shares, have great respect for Feng Anxian.
So, Feng Anxian said to Guan Meimei very confidently: "Let's take a look at the song given by Gu Che first, if the song he gives is not good, I will go to the company and tailor a song for you!" ”
Guan Meimei covered her mouth and chuckled: "There are no very senior songwriters in your company, they are all young people, and the songs they write may not be suitable for me." ”
Feng Anxian frowned, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "After Zhenghao's kid took over the company from his father, he was not interested in things in the entertainment industry, but in the entertainment peripherals of the recording studio, wasting a prospect that his father had developed. If it were me, I would sign more directors and creators when the influence of Xingchen culture is still very great. ”
Guan Meimei comforted her in turn and said: "Xiao Zhenghao has done a very good job, he has not adjusted the entertainment map that Old Man Xiao has built, which is enough to show that Old Man Xiao has done too well, he has no way to start, and the adjustment is the best choice." You see, isn't the entertainment department of Star Culture very good in the industry? ”
"Zhenghao chose to start with the relevant facilities of the entertainment industry, which is also very good, which makes it more convenient for his artists to act, and they don't have to go to other places to see the faces of other companies, which is also convenient for the public and promotes the development of the entertainment economy."
"I Have a Catalogue of Ghosts and Gods"
Feng Anxian glanced at her, "You can't ignore him just because he's your cousin, he still has a lot of shortcomings." ”
said so, but Feng Anxian's face was calm, and her tone was also calm, not like she was angry at all.
Guan Meimei hurriedly smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes!" I'll talk about Zhenghao sometime. ”
When I opened the mailbox, the name of the lyrics was the first to be printed, called-
"Walking on the Road of Life"!
Just seeing this lyric, Guan Meimei couldn't help but be touched and liked it at a glance.
She thinks the title of the song is a great way to express what she thinks right now.
There is a sense of relaxation and relaxation when strolling.
And on the road of life, she has almost completed the whole journey, and the rest is only a smooth road to the end of life.
Stop-and-go, she has experienced too many landscapes, and she has survived them all, so that she can now have a relaxed "stroll".
"Walking on the Road of Life" ......" Feng Anxian read out the title of the song, pondered it, and was actually satisfied with the title of the song.
But on the face, she still said with a straight face: "Let's take a look at the lyrics of this song again!" ”
After the two of them finished reading the lyrics of the whole song, they understood why Gu Che had the title of "ghost talent" in the industry.
It's incredible!
Talented?
No, no, no, that's not what I used to describe Gu Che.
Only "ghost talent" can express Gu Che's ghostly songwriting and songwriting power!
How did he, a young man in his prime, come up with a song like "Walking on the Road of Life", which contains a long philosophy of life and can only be experienced when he is old?
Guan Meimei thought of the moment she first saw Gu Che, she only felt that she was younger and jerkier than what she saw on the screen, but she didn't expect that this young man who seemed to have just graduated from college would create such mature and spicy songs!
Mature and spicy - is the only description Guan Meimei can imagine.
She couldn't help asking: "An Xian, is Gu Che only 25 years old?" ”
Feng Anxian said uncertainly: "It should be a birthday, there are 26, right?" ”
Guan Meimei muttered to herself: "Such a song, even if it is made at the age of 26, it is terrifying!" ”
She had the feeling of dreaming back to the past.
If many classic songwriters hadn't said to the outside world that they would no longer create, how could she be willing to say goodbye to the entertainment industry temporarily?
If there was such a song back then, Guan Meimei would not have been a problem to sing for another five years!
Suddenly, Guan Meimei thought of the now popular music she heard a few days ago, and couldn't help but feel unsure.
This song, in the heyday of the year, can definitely fight a heavy encirclement in the Chinese music scene, at that time, the Chinese music scene was basically the Nanzhou music scene, and the Cantonese music of Nanzhou was a must!
But now, Kwan Meimei is not sure.
She looked at Feng Anxian and asked in a low voice, "Anxian, do you think this song can get up?" ”
Feng Anxian just wanted to say that she must be able to, the quality of this song is so high!
But when the words were about to come out, I thought of the little stars I saw in the star culture, and the songs they sang were like noise to Feng Anxian's ears, but they were said to be very popular music.
"This ......"
Feng Anxian paused and sighed: "The song is a good song, but it's hard to say whether you can get up!" ”
Guan Meimei's group of singers all retired when the Nanzhou music scene went from peak to loneliness.
It's hard to say whether it's because of their retirement, which caused the Nanzhou music scene to fall lonely faster.
This song was placed ten years ago, and Feng Anxian can guarantee that it is definitely very popular, even if it was placed twenty or thirty years ago, there must be people who like it.
But now, Feng Anxian is not sure.
Guan Meimei's eyes flickered, but she finally made up her mind-
"No matter, anyway, I don't want to sing for fame, I just want to sing. No matter what song Gu Che gives me, I will sing it, not to mention that this song is still so good, I want to sing it even more! ”
In the last smooth road of life, Guan Meimei walked steadily for many years, and suddenly wanted to take a look at the scenery outside the smooth road.
It's just that unlike before, even if the road outside the road is bumpy, she can keep a calm mind and go on.
-
Guan Meimei's speed of sending back the news was much faster than Gu Che imagined.
About an hour later, she sent a message to Gu Che, saying that she was very satisfied with the song and wanted to record it as soon as possible.
Gu Che replied: [Okay]
Guan Meimei said again; [I still feel that this song is very old-fashioned, but the mixers I knew before are no longer in this business, or have retired, I want to ask you if there is a suitable person over there?] 】
Gu Che's eyes lit up.
I just wanted to introduce business to Lao Zhou, oh Huo, isn't this coming?
Gu Che replied: [I have a fixed mixer, I feel that he is very talented, can analyze the characteristics of the singer's voice, and then mix the sound very much in line with the situation expressed in the lyrics and the singer's voice, but I'm not sure if he can do the mixing of "Walking on the Road of Life", I'll give you an answer later]
Kwan Meimei: [Good]
Gu Che didn't agree to Zhou Fan for the first time, because the song "Walking on the Road of Life" is indeed a bit special.
It is full of a sense of age, and now the songs with a sense of age are relatively old, and young people may not be able to get the essence of the songs.
Although Zhou Fanxian is a little older than him, he is also a young man, and Gu Che is afraid that Zhou Fanxian will not be able to do it.
Gu Che sent a message to Zhou Fan first, thinking that if Lao Zhou couldn't do it, then he would go out in person.
He is very familiar with the song "Walking on the Road of Life" in his mind, although he has not mixed the sound, but he guided Zhou Fan to mix it to the point where it is similar to the song in his mind, and it should be okay.
Zhou Fan first received a message from Gu Che and was pondering the song "Stubborn" with the members of the band "Colored Black".
The song "Stubborn" is a good song, in Zhou Fanxian's eyes, this song is not much worse than "Loving Ing", and even better than the element of "Love".
Why?
Because there are too many people singing in love, everyone sings rotten!
There are too many people singing about love, and it's really difficult to stand out from them.
But "Stubborn" is different, "Stubborn" is actually more of an inspirational song, singing the stubborn energy of young people who "don't hit the south wall and don't die".
It's a bit like the idea conveyed by "Sea and Sky", but "Sea and Sky" is obviously more mature and vicissitudes, and it also needs to be more experienced.
The ideas conveyed by "Stubborn" are relatively young and in line with the thoughts of young people.
After reading the lyrics first, Zhou Fan felt that this song would definitely be popular among young people, and it was very likely that it would be shortlisted for "Inspirational Classic Song".
When it comes to the element of "inspirational", many people will think of "Stubborn".
Zhou Fan glanced at his mobile phone first, and found that it was Gu Che who sent it quickly, and immediately became serious, "You guys discuss with each other first, what you think of this song." ”
He stepped aside and checked the text message.
The more Zhou Fan looked at it, the more his brows tightened.
The father of the gold owner wants to bring him business, he is honored!
But will the business difficulties brought to him by the gold owner's father be a little too great?
Twenty or thirty years ago, the song style was recorded, and I asked him if he could mix up the sense of age before?
Twenty or thirty years ago, he was just a teenage middle school student or a young boy who had just put on open crotch pants, and he didn't remember any music from any era, okay?
Listening to those songs with a sense of age, I only listened to them more than ten years ago, and now that I think about it, I am a little embarrassed, and he hasn't listened to it again for a long time.
No way, all he was exposed to by work was pop music.
Zhou Fan asked cautiously: [Can you know who you want to record for?] 】
Gu Che replied lightly: [Guan Meimei]
Zhou Fanxian: [!! 】
Guan Meimei!
Frog fun, is it Guan Meimei who has withdrawn from the Xia Guo music scene in his memory? !
Zhou Fanxian's brain was full of blood: [Pick up!!] 】
That must, definitely, absolutely have to be taken!
Guan Meimei's popularity in that era can be called a superstar now!
The first disc sold more than 5 million on the first day, and it entered the platinum record in one day, can you believe it?
starred in a TV series for the first time, and won the TV queen of the year, can you believe it?
starred in a movie for the first time, only a supporting role, but also won the best supporting role that year, can you believe it?
Guan Meimei In the previous era, it was an existence that called for wind and rain to charm all beings.
Such a super VVVIP superstar, Zhou Fan will only push it out if he is stupid.
Zhou Fanxian: [Brother Che, I love you!! 】
Gu Che sweated.
It's over, another crazy one.
